they can’t be jammed the way radio can.

I wonder how well these satellite laser links do with various types of cloud cover.

As long as every terrestrial node isn’t experiencing overcast skies, it should be okay.

Cool, but I’m not sure what they’re claiming to be first at. NASA did 200 Gbps over a year ago: nasa.gov/…/nasa-partners-achieve-fastest-space-to…

While the experiment is not the first for space-to-Earth laser communications, it’s the first using a commercially available ground station, according to Morizur.

The article should have mentioned the NASA test, though

Someone tell Marjorie Taylor-Green! The French are in league with the Jews!

For whoever downvoted this, if it’s out of concern about our resident airborne cephalopod engaging in antisemitism, I believe that he’s poking fun at Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Back in 2018, before Marjorie Taylor Greene was a household name and a member of Congress, she took to Facebook to share a convoluted conspiracy theory. She suggested that a solar energy laser generator was being used by Pacific Gas and Electric, in collaboration with figures like Jerry Brown and Dianne Feinstein’s husband, to clear land in rural California for a $77 billion high-speed railway. She highlighted a connection between a board member of PG&E and Rothschild, Inc. The insinuation was clear to many: The Rothschilds, a historically wealthy Jewish family, were behind this nefarious plot.

You believe correctly.

Kiss that mods ass.

By repeating their rhetoric, even as a joke, it’s just giving oxygen to people who don’t deserve any form of publicity whatsoever. It would be better not to reference these batshit-insane conspiracy theories and then perhaps they would die more quickly.

This story is about French/space/communications/technology. Not American/politics/racist/conspiracy. Not one genre overlap, so there’s no reason to even bring it up here. Maybe leave these jokes to the American politics threads.

Let us have our fun.
